Liam Payne and Zayn Malik Planning a Ziam Collaboration?

Are Ziam making a comeback? It sounds like things are in the works for Zayn Malik and Liam Payne to collaborate on some new music!

In Zayn's interview with Fader magazine, the former boy bander said that he's only been in touch with Liam recently, explaining: "I spoke to Liam about two weeks ago. It was the first time I'd spoken to him since I left the band, and I rung him, and he wanted to talk. He said that he didn't understand it at the time, but he now fully gets why I had to do what I did."

He added, "He understands that it's my thing, that I had to do that, and that basically he wants to meet up and sit down and have a good chat in person, and he wants to do some music and work on some stuff aside from being in the band, which we always wanted to do anyway."

Okay, this sounds promising.

Yet, on the Ellen DeGeneres show, when the One Direction guys were asked about Zayn, things got a bit awkward, to say the least, with Harry totally cracking up.

Ellen asked, "Why are you laughing?" Harry's response? "Because you can cut the tension in here. Let's make some jokes."

Who doesn’t have a crush on at least one of the guys of One Direction? Turns out celebs are just like us – here are some of the famous faces who have admitted to it.

Fifth Harmony’s Camila has totally copped to crushing on the band, saying back in the day during an X Factor press conference: “It was SO surreal meeting One Direction. They’re so down to earth. Three months ago I was trying to sneak up to the front at a One Direction concert because I had lousy seats and today we met them...life rocks.”

Kesha told Heat magazine about her Harry crush: “He’s a beautiful thing, isn’t he? I won’t eat him. I actually gave him an award at some show, so I got to give him a little squeeze. [His hair] smells like roses and tropical lotions mixed with butterflies.”

Meghan told Capital FM she fancied Niall because he was so charming, explaining: "One Direction, give me the blonde one! He's a gentleman. All the other boys walked by and he came up to me, I got swept off my feet!"

Jessie has admitted to liking Niall best out of the boy band members, telling the Hot Hits: "I'd pick Niall, cause he always tweets me and he's a sweetie. He's Irish, he's sweet, he's got blonde hair and he got very excited when he won a Brit award and it was really cute."

Emma told Chelsea Handler on Chelsea Lately that she’s a bit of a Harry fangirl, admitting, "Literally, my little sister and I talk about One Direction all day...It's like Harry Styles, Harry Styles, Harry Styles” on her phone!

Rita told MTV: "I mean, me and the whole music industry probably have a crush on Harry Styles. Everyone's acting like it's a shock but, I'm sorry, I think I'm just the only one admitting it. I like his hair. I just think he's funny and cute."

Kate can’t pick just one...but if she had to? She revealed, "I mean, have you seen Harry Styles‘ face? Listen, he’s young. I like all of them. I’m not just going to say Harry Styles.” Diplomatic, we like that.

Michael admitted to having a giant man crush on Niall, tweeting after the 1D star showed up to one of his concerts: "Meant so much to have my buddy @niallhoran come and support me at the O2 last night! Love Ya buddy!!! #morethanafriend #mancrush #directioner4life #MBworldtour."
